GLOBAL to Address Major UK Border Security Conference

LONDON, March 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Global Strategies Group (GLOBAL), the international defence and national security company, is to address a major UK conference on the issue of international aviation safety and security.

Dale Davis, Executive Director of National Security Initiatives for GLOBAL, will present to senior government and industry figures at the RUSI Border Security conference in London on 14^th March. He will address the challenges in achieving international aviation standards in fragile states, which continue to pose a risk to international aviation safety, and outline effective capacity building measures to address threats at source.

The event is the UK's premiere conference examining the strategies, partnerships and technologies needed to combat threats emanating from the transnational flow of people, information and illicit goods. GLOBAL brings insight to this debate garnered from its long track record of partnering with governments around the world to address emerging threats to national security.  GLOBAL will share first-hand experience of maintaining border and aviation security in some of the world's most complex environments.

Speaking ahead of the conference, Mr Davis commented:

"Vulnerabilities in aviation security are best approached through a combination of local action and international cooperation. As our experience proves, that approach can deliver real results even in some of the world's most challenging operating environments.  I will be sharing that experience with the conference as a contribution to this important debate on UK national security."
